The Part Average Analysis shows a methodical approach to improve the reliability and availability of technical systems efficiently. This method enables the detection of abnormal data or functionalities in series processes, which gives a sure reference to latent or “sleeping” faults. Components with a high loss risk will be preventively selected and be blocked for further process steps. Fokus The goal of this method is an early fault detection in order to improve the value process of technical systems.

B, 25.08.2000 http://www.aecouncil.com http://www.aecouncil.com Typical application: Automotive semiconductor wafer test Detection of oulier chips to select them (inking) when data are inside of the specified range but outside of 6 sigma distance to the statistic average Optimized mathematical algorithm for Wafertesting includes testing and inking in one operation step No fault risk assessment
